RD Chapter 3 Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables Ex 3.7 Solutions

Question - 11 : - A two-digit number is 4 times the sum of its digits and twice the product of the digits. Find-the number. (C.B.S.E. 2005)

Answer - 11 : -

Let the units digit of the number = x
and tens digit = y
Number = x + 10y
According to the conditions given,

Question - 12 : - A two-digit number is such that the product of its digits is 20. If 9 is added to the number, the digits interchange their places. Find the number. (C.B.S.E. 2005)

Answer - 12 : -

Let the units digit of the number = x
and tens digit = y
Number = x + 10y
and number after interchanging its digits = y + 10x
According to the conditions,
xy = 20

Question - 13 : - The difference between two pumbers is 26 and one number is three times the other. Find them.

Answer - 13 : -

Let first number = x
and second number = y
x – y = 26 ……….(i)
x = 3y ….(ii)
Substituting the value of x in (i)
3y – y = 26
=> 2y = 26
=>y = 13
x = 3y = 3 x 13 = 39
Numbers are 39, 13

Question - 14 : - The sum of the digits o,f a two-digit number is 9. Also, nine times this number is twice the number obtained by reversing the order of the digits. Find the number.

Answer - 14 : -

Let the units digit of the number = x
and tens digit number = y
Number = x + 10y
and the number by reversing the order of the digits = y + 10x
According to the condition;
x + y = 9 …..(i)
9 (x + 10y) = 2 (y + 10x)
=> 9x + 90y = 2y + 20x
=> 9x + 90y – 2y – 20x = 0
=> -11x + 88y = 0
=> x – 8y = 0 (Dividing by -11)
=> x = 8y
Substituting the value of x in (i)
8y + y = 9
=> 9y = 9
=> y= 1
x = 8y = 1 x 8 = 8
Number = x + 10y = 8 + 10 x 1 = 8 + 10 = 18

Question - 15 : - Seven times a two-digit number is equal to four times the number obtained by reversing the digits. If the difference between the digits is 3. Find the number.

Answer - 15 : -

Let the units digit of the number = x
and tens digit = y
Number = x + 10y
and number after reversing the digits = y + 10x
According to the conditions,
x – y = 3 ….(i)
and 7 (x + 10y) = 4 (y + 10x)
=> 7x + 70y = 4y + 40x
=> 7x + 70y – 4y – 40x = 0
=> -33x + 66y = 0
=> x – 2y = 0 (Dividing by -33)
=> x = 2y
Substituting the value of x in (i),
2y – y = 3 => y = 3
x = 2y = 2 x 3 = 6
and number = x + 10y = 6 + 10 x 3 = 6 + 30 = 36

Question - 16 : - Two numbers are in the ratio 5 : 6. If 8 is subtracted from each of the numbers, the ratio becomes 4 : 5. Find the numbers. [NCERT Exemplar]

Answer - 16 : -

Let the two numbers be x and y.
Then, by the first condition, ratio of these two numbers = 5 : 6
x : y = 5 : 6

Question - 17 : - A two-digit number is obtained by either multiplying the sum of the digits by 8 and then subtracting 5 or by multiplying the difference of the digits by 16 and then adding 3. Find the number. [NCERT Exemplar]

Answer - 17 : -

Let the two-digit number = 10x + y
Case I : Multiplying the sum of the digits by 8 and then subtracting 5 = two-digit number
=> 8 x (x + y) – 5 = 10x + y
